User talk:RobloxPlayer1

Thanks

Hi RobloxPlayer1, I appreciate the anti-spam barnstar. :) However, I should note that the page you refer to, Talk:List of Flashpoint episodes, is one I've never edited before. Still, thanks for the award. Best. Acalamari 10:47, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

A little help

I need to know how to create a banner. I remember finding it my first day on Wikipedia, but I can't remember. This user is currently a [[Sergeant]] [[File:NYPD Sergeant Stripes.svg|frameless]] in the force. RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 22:45, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

What do you mean by banner, what do you want it to say? Do you mean a maintenance tag? -- Patchy1 01:13, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Like this one: RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 01:17, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Do you mean a userbox? Like these ones>>> ?

A userbox is a small rectangular box that looks like this. Below are more examples.

Userboxes can come in many different styles and colors.

Userboxes can have one or two sideboxes.

This one already exists: {{User Police}} -- Patchy1 01:30, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

No, like this: {{Atschool}} RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 01:37, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

That banner uses {{Ombox}}, and there are instructions in the template documentation on how to create one. Are you planning to just put it on your userpage?-- Patchy1 01:50, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes.RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 01:51, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Will the above work? -- Patchy1 01:58, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you! I wouldn't have been able to do it without you're help!RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 01:59, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

No problem, here is the wiki markup for your convenience. -- Patchy1 02:01, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

{{ombox
| image     = [[File:NYPD Sergeant Stripes.svg|frameless|40px]]
| style     = width: 400px; 
| textstyle = font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;
| text      = This user is currently a [[Sergeant]] in the force
}}

If I need your help again, I'll let you know! RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 02:02, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Re: Your message on my talk page

Would you mind explaining to me what I did that was seen as harassment by somebody? The message that you left on my talk page was not helpful in explaining what I supposedly did. On top of that, it was a little insulting, too, considering how it was worded for newcomers, not for editors that have made over 10,000 contributions. If I made a mistake I will take responsibility, but first you need to explain to me what the mistake was. Davejohnsan (talk) 02:30, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

• Davejohnsan's removal of a copyright violation (here) was entirely appropriate and was not harassment as you indicated in your edit summary.[1] --AussieLegend (✉) 07:21, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Looks like I forgot to log out yesterday morning.RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 18:19, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

You did not even answer my question; I won't waste my time trying to get one from you. Next time, please do not revert other users' edits with baseless accusations. Davejohnsan (talk) 00:22, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

More help

How do I create a userbox?

See WP:Userboxes and Help:Userbox. JohnCD (talk) 18:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

I need to know the colors.RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 19:52, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Nvm, I found it here: List_of_colors RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 20:10, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

But, I would like to know how to archive this page, just in case it gets too big. RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 20:10, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

For archival, see WP:ARCHIVE. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:11, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

How do I get a page protected so only I can edit it? RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 18:46, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

You don't - Wikipedia doesn't work like that. See WP:Ownership of articles and Wikipedia:Protection policy. If a page is affected by severe vandalism, temporary protection can be requested at WP:Requests for page protection, but protection is used reluctantly and only when necessary - only if vandalism has actually been occurring, not as a precaution because it might occur. Where protection is applied, it is more often "semi-protection" which only prevents editing by IP addresses and new accounts. JohnCD (talk) 18:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Need help (hitting a brick wall)

 Question: I need 4 different names. (can't be Alex Grand, Alexis Grant, Mike Franks, Danny Williams, Ronald Felix, Greg Watson, or Steven McGarret.) I can't of think of any names. Can you help? RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 23:21, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

What is this for? Keep in mind that the {{help me}} feature is only for Wikipedia help questions. -- Patchy1 23:53, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I changed it. It's for a document I'm doing.RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 23:55, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Happy birthday

A belated happy birthday to you. I realise it was nearly three weeks ago but better late than never. --AussieLegend (✉) 01:31, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! I can't believe there's a fog advisory in effect in my town right now, though. I'm also still waiting for the status thing to load. (Link is here) RobloxPlayer1 (talk) 01:56, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Indefinitely blocked

As you know from your time spent editing as User:WBJB03, you are not permitted to edit Wikipedia until you successfully appealed the block on your old account. I have indefinitely blocked this account, as a sock puppet of WBJB03. Please do not attempt to edit Wikipedia again. You should read up on why Wikipedia exists (it is not a social networking site) and on what we require of our contributors. I wish you luck in your future endeavours outwith Wikipedia, whatever they may be. AGK [•] 10:48, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
